Ep 271 is loose! And we're heading way back to the time of the Vikings for a few tales of adventure, of bloody feuds and very bad bargaining...

What do you REALLY know about the Vikings? Who was Gunnhildr, Mother of Kings? And why you should never trust a Viking travel brochure...

The secret ingredient is...Norway!
